iRocker Nautical Kids iSUP - Review 2025

The Nautical Kids iSUP is one of the hardier paddle boards on the kids market. With the biggest dimensions on our list, it remains as light as competitors. But, this larger build may prove challenging for junior paddlers to manage on land. Kids 10 and up are the ideal audience.

More than other kids’ paddle boards, there are certain design details that indicate a keener, more mature user, like a cool key-stash spot in the leash. The backpack also includes slip-in wheels for easier towing – extra moving parts that may be complicated for younger kids to deal with.

Think “growing-room.” The all-around shape maneuvers well, but may not respond as quickly or easily as a shorter kids board. Kids can develop their ability to control the board as they build strength.

Unfortunately, the included paddle falls short. Literally. Whereas the board is built to accommodate larger (or multiple little) riders, the paddle only works for heights up to 5’1” (5’3” max). A separate paddle purchase may be inevitable.

That aside, iRocker has built a great option for young adult SUPers. For a paddle board your kids can grow with over several years, look no further.
